Chance made them 100 day Ministers sniffing dirt searching material to accuse the previous Government, please vote them out at  next General Elections.
Posted on January 30th, 2015

By Charles.S.Perera

They  the 100 day Ministers would not have even dreamt they would be  Minsters this soon. If UNP had contested  the elections with Ranil Wickramasinghe as the leader  they would have surely lost again. This time it is through sheer good luck, and thanks to Maitripala Sirisena  they have become 100day Ministers  in a mostly UNP Government of 100 days.

But what they are doing as chance” Ministers is sniffing dirt to accuse the previous government for corruption, fraud, and irregularities committed by it. It is 20 days since good luck hit them but they have done nothing positive. They are still cleaning a dislocated drainage system.

The 20 day experience since 9th January,2015,  the people had with these Ministers has given them  an idea  as to what they could expect from them if they were to be  Ministers in a government after a General Election.  It would be a disaster from what we have seen  if we are to continue with this same men as Ministers again in a  government  after the general  election.  They are mostly from the UNP and UNP has no good record of  work to take  Sri Lanka forward towards progress.

And if we examine  what contribution the UNP governments have made, since that of JR Jayawardhane in 1977  for the progress and development of Sri Lanka we will see that they have  contributed very little or nothing at all , but each UNP Government since 1977 ended up with disastrous consequences to the country.

All  UNP governments were west oriented. JR was in fact called Yankee Dickie for his attachment to America.  But when JR was in dire need of a friend in 1983 after India turned against Sri Lanka   dropping dry ration to the terrorists sieged  in  Jaffna, America did not come to his help, resulting in his having to give into Indians and sign  the notorious Indo Lanka pact and  forced by India to introduce the 13th Amendment  into the Constitution of Sri Lanka.

JR also carried out a witch hunt and took away the civic rights of the leader of the SLFP(  Is there  any difference in what the 100day UNP Ministers are trying to do to-day?  Shameless Isn’t it ?)

JR’s UNP government  was followed by the UNP Government of R.Premadasa in 1989. His period  saw the brutal killings and torture camps. According to a commission report  he was involved in the assassination of Lalith Athulathmudaly and also in the death of  Lt.General Denzil Kobbakaduwa. He was also known to have provided arms  and ammunition to terrorists to fight against the Indian Peace Keeping Force. Few development projects were completed  but  Sri Lanka did not see much progress under him.

Then came the UNP government  of Ranil Wickramasinghe, under President Chandrika Kumaratunga  .  Ranil Wickramasinghe ignored the presence of the President and took control of the government and led the country to near disaster signing a CFA with the terrorist Prabhakaran, giving an area to be kept under terrorist control.

That is how  this treacherous man Ranil Wickramasinghe started to play with our motherland.  He has no sense of patriotism, and unless the people are watchful, this is what Ranil Wickramasinghe is planning to do,  proposing to implement the 13 Amendment.  He has no right to do it being only a nominal Prime Minister  without any legal authority of a Prime Minister under the Constitution of Sri Lanka.

 Ranil Wickramasinghe will even agree to allow the TNA to set up Eelam State as what he wants is to have Tamil votes  for his election at the next general election and if possible become the President after Maitripala Sirisena. May God Forbid !

President Chandrika Kumaratunga was an  immature politicians who messed up completely the situation with the terrorists even offering the north of Sri Lanka to Prabhakaran for a trial period of  ten years, which he refused as what he wanted, as the TNA wants today, is a separate Eelam State.

That is what UNP had been to Sri Lanka.  Even today we do not see any difference with the UNP.  They are unable to bring about any substantial progress to Sri Lanka acting completely without a vision for the development of the country.  The only passion of the UNP Ministers of 100 days is raking  the past in search of material to sling mud at the former President , his government, his family and children.

From what they are doing today  the people will judge  their quality as Ministers unable to contribute  any thing positive  for the development  of  Sri Lanka.  The  budget they have presented is a  mediocrity  for those who wants to satisfy their stomachs and taste buds without any creative  contributions for development.  Even the Budget has been  twisted to please the Tamils- see the consumer commodities the price of which have been reduced-dhal, kur kuma, coriander, ulundu dhal, mung eta.

It is now that the people realize the mistake they made not to have voted  the former President back into power.  It was the President Mahinda Rajapakse who within the short time after elimination of terrorists  contributed to the vast development,  progress and prosperity of Sri Lanka more than all the UNP governments past, present or future, put together. 

This government of 100 day Prime Minister can only throw mud at the previous government of the President Mahinda Rajapakse, but will  never be able to even half  emulate it to equal the fantastic development  the former government under the President Mahinda Rajapakse was able to perform within just five years after the elimination of  terrorists who left the country in ruin.

UNP as all capitalist oriented governments cannot bring about progress to Sri Lanka.  All counties develop and progress under socialist form of governments be it Democrats in America, Labour in UK, Socialists in France and so on.

The UNP Ministers  in their tweed suits and the British ties  are by their ignorant pretension to belong to a higher form of a political system are confined to a restricted view of development .

 Their idea of  development and progress come from  the Western Books they have read and from  ideas gathered in  Western universities they may have been to, or what the Western politicians have put into their heads.

It is their restricted idea of democracy, their restricted idea of justice,  their  restricted idea  of development that  keep them within a restricted frame, beyond which they cannot see.  Hence they are devoid of  new ideas for development and progress.   They  are playing to please the West,  and only the West and the local crowd with high opinion of western values

The greatest folly of Sirisena’s government led by a Prime Minister pandering to the Western lobby,  was in  setting aside an impeachment to  reinstate the impeached Chief Justice Shriyani Bandaranayake.

If there is an error in Justice it should be rectified only through an appeal to justice.   It is a  complete reversal of justice for the executive to interfere to rectify a judicial error. Why did they do it ?  to prove that former President was wrong and to vilify him. Is that Justice  ? is that Good Governance ?   Perhaps they will receive the accolade of the west, creating a shameless legal precedent. 

And the worst of it is, it is they who speak of justice ,that claim that the appointment of Mohan Pieris was illegal, and terminate his services without justice.

If  that appointment was illegal  there are correct ways and means to have terminated the services of the C.J.  It was completely incorrect to have given  into  a set of jack asses calling themselves  men of law bringing disrepute to BASL.  A Chief Justice  once appointed notwithstanding what a set of foolish” lawyers with self interest say about the  manner  of his appointed, should be given the honour and esteem  of the Chief Justice of Sri Lanka. 

 What is yahapalanaya in allowing a set of brutes from the BASL crying for the blood of Chief Justice Mohan Pieris ?  They should be ashamed to call themselves the men of law.  It is a complete negation of justice  for lawyers to  manifest within the sanctimonious precincts of the Court Complex against none other than the Chief Justice of Sri Lanka.

It is only a Prime Minister who is really lowly and  without  respect to  accepted cultural norms of Sri Lanka that would have acted as he did to remove the Chief Justice unceremoniously. It has to be emphasised that Ranil Wickramasinghe is not an accredited Prime Minister in terms of the Constitution of Sri Lanka

 Every thing that is being done by this crude, uncultured, venomous  hastily collected 100 day Ministers led by a characterless Prime Minkister is to revile,vilify scandalise, insult and add accusation of wrong doing  against the former President Mahinda Rajapakse and his government.  It is pitifully impolite and lacking in goodsense.

Even the appointment of Ministers was to spite, injure and revile  the former President Mahinda Rajapakse.  Mangala Samaraweera is an enemy of the former President. Ravi Karunanayake  mocked the Sri Lanka Armed Forces, Lakshman Kiriella an adorer of the West, Rajita Senaratne a venomous man.

The 100 day Ministers of UNP, they  criticise , they condemn and they accuse the former President Mahinda Rajapakse , treating him as their opponent  their political rival.  But they do not take the time to understand the man, his philosophy and his fantastic political vision, which is worth emulating notwithstanding  on what side of the barrier he stands.

 Maithripala’s election manifesto is incomparabl to the Mahinda Chinthanya which is  a complete philosophical and a practical political means to modernise Sri Lanka taking it away from the  dependence on the West, its democracy, its legal system, its cultural influence, and  its political and Christian methodology .  It embraced every aspect of development and facet where attention is required for improvement in a country rising out of the ashes of terrorism with the Tamil Community embedded in a deeply racial separatist mind frame.

Mahinda Chintanaya was  to shatter the long existing  minority and a majority complex, to unite Communities  taking them away from  the narrow sense  of  Communal belonging, to build a multi cultural Nation out  of a country  once  poverty  stricken, enslaved by foreigners,  thrown into a foreign civilisation  strange to its culture, and religion and devastated by a ruthless terrorism.

The Present President or none among the venomous minded collection of  Ministers in  his government will ever be able to set down a document like Mahinda Chintanaya. These 100 day Ministers, not selected by the people but by a Prime Minister appointed  by a President  new to National leadership cannot even present pleasant faces when they appear in the television.

Even the Members of the Supper  Committee Aruna Kumara Dissanayake, Champika Ranawake etc. and frequently appearing Rajita Senaratne , with their  hearts swollen with anger, hatred and ambition  refusing to summon on to their angry faces a smile which they seem to have lost since long time, are a bane to Sri Lanka’s  political system which for the last ten years was in the interest of the people  as a whole without any communal difference.

The Sinhala do not seek to be separated  but united with the other Communities.

The Sinhala are not racists but a magnanimous people.  Mahinda Rajapakse  was the epitome of that magnanimity.

It is the egoist short sighted opposition politicians of Sri Lanka with their selfish agendas , attempting to  hoodwink the poor people  with cheap food and minor mediocre interests, without considering more important issue that  was being mooted against Sri Lanka by the West that manipulated the t Mahinda Rajapakse forces to defeat him at the elections.

The West  feared  MahindRajapakse-the most visionary foresighted leader taking Sri Lanka forward to wards development and progress with  out depending on the West, but forging new political relations  and developing the old with different countries in the worlds.

President Mahinda Rajapakse was interested in the development of Sri Lanka and uniting the people at whatever cost without  witch hunting or raking the past of his opponents to accuse them for their illegal transactions , their involvement in torture camps etc. Mahjinda Rajapakse  was a gentleman politician, unlike the new set in action.

The opposition politicians enlisted the TNA Tamils the most unpatriotic racists with their ambition for the establishment of a Tamil Eelam to get them to vote in favour of the Common Candidate and against Mahinda Rajapakse.

Ranil Wickramasinghe who cares less for  Sri Lanka’s unitary state  or  Communal unity has a penchant for the Tamils, as he knows  it is with the Tamil votes he may one day succeed in being the President of Sri Lanka..  He even signed the CFA with the Tamil terrorists against the Sinhala. 

 Ranil Wickramasinge rejected by the people 29 times, given the opportunity   will not hesitate to give the TNA and the Tamils-a Tamil only Province for them to have their Tamil Eelam.

 Some people have short memories , but at the next general elections  the majority of the Sinhala people( if not the Tamils and Muslims ), will remember who were the  patriotic politicians who worked  most to give them peace and protection  and delivered them from the ruthless terrorist to live without fear. Therefore to who they should vote.

 Sinhala be advised not to seek the satisfaction of the stomach , but think  of greater things for our country and nation, and sacrifice the desire to satisfy the stomach in favour of a Greater Sri Lanka where the people are united non-racial willing to a one Nation of Sri Lankans .

This time,  outvote the Tamils of the North  in order not to bring back the Ministers of the 100 day government and deafeat  Ranil Wickramasinghe at the general elections to stop him from dividing Sri Lanka.

    MONTHS BEFORE the election I said the ONLY WAY MR could in the election is by getting Tamils in the north NOT to vote.

    HAD he listened, he will be in power.

    When YARL DEVI started running I KNEW what will happen! No one listened. Not even good man Charles. ALL thought Tamils will LOVE MR for saving them and giving them everything. WRONG! You feed a crocodile and the crocodile will EAT you. You feed a rat and there will be a rat infestation in your house. You feed a cobra and the cobra will sting you. You leave food for cockroaches and the cockroaches will ruin you.

    I KNOW how Tamils think and it is NOT logical in normal human terms.

    MR deserves what he got for not listening to us.

    Namaste: Indian imperialist in 2005 got Mahinda in over Ranil assuming it was hard to negotiate with Ranil by getting Indians not to vote for Ranil. Then in 2010 it got and backed Sarah Fonseka. This time it Sirisena through Chandrika and Ranil by getting Indians to vote. Indian colonial parasites, vermin and Indians follow what the Indian imperialists tell them to do be they are in India or in their colonies. Jai Hind.

    Well said, writer! This buffoonery will last only till April 2015.
    Where is the promise he made to abolish the exec presidency? Now he’s given himself 5 years as executive president!

    Now Mahinda Rajapakse says “I self-critically admit that my government did not take these baseless allegations seriously and counter them in time”.
    It is too late for him to come back now. If he had been reading Lankaweb’s comments and counteract them in efficient manner he would have saved his reputation.
    Now we have to prevent Ranil’s effort to divide the country!!

  5. Christie Says:

    Namaste: No way Mahinda have won this election. India has been in effective control of the island from 1956 to 2005. India made an error of judgment in 2005 in supporting Mahinda instead of Ranil. Jai Hind.

    Well said Charles. There are millions like you and me who wish to have this dictatorship Govt out in the next General election. They act like Lords of the Jungle with no rules or respect for the law in the country. They run all the T.V’s and Newspapers and talk about Yahapalanaya. This is not about Mahinda or Sirisena Governing our country. We are worried and afraid of this Tie Coat guy and his inexperienced team of UNP thugs and the coup leader Choura Regina who has come back to take revenge with the help of Diaspora money. They haven’t done anything in the past except helping the LTTE terrorist Organization. From JR to Ranil all did that helping our enemies and got paid. Just open your eyes and see what they are doing now? Why the Americans,British,India in a hurry to visit our Motherland? Why Mangalaya is running like a hound dog in a hurry to see his Master’s in the west? What is the real motive behind all this? Just think hard what will happen to our country if we allow these traitors to go on like this. Not even a month passed they have appointed LTTE sympathizers to very important positions in the country. Governors, Central bank chief,Chief Justice,Ministers etc. Who are the real beneficiaries from this Yahapalana Govt except Tamils & Muslims? Nobody. Sinhalese have become second class now. All the stupid Sinhalese say “Yes Sir” to this American backed Govt because their stomach is full now with so many cheap Indian goodies come down in price and damn care about the country. They forgot all the good things we enjoyed after the fall of Prabakaran the Butcher. Cannot believe our Sinhalese.

    UNP Thugs are roaming around the country and searching for garbage and harassing,assaulting and even killing innocent Opposition supporters. They want to take power in every Pradeshi Saba by force. No rules for them. They do as they pleased. Ranil is the Lord of the jungle and he ignores Sirisena same like in Chandrika time and does things as he pleased. He has the backing of that Dentist Rajitha and the Notorious JVPer’s and that Monk party. They have forgotten the Sinhala race completely. Instead of uniting they have divided them to make room for Tamils and Muslims to build their castles and their kingdoms. For a day Muslims buy 15 Acres of land from our Motherland without a sound from the money sent from their Arab friends. While they produce big families and rob our land the stupid Sinhalese are killing each other with no future.

    Forget parties or persons think of your land of birth. We should have a country to call home first then only other things will follow. Ranil will do anything as long as he can be in power. He is cheating the citizens and destroying our unity. Reducing prices is not so important if we do not have a united country? The prices can go up at anytime.We have seen their dirty games before.They know that our stupids will do anything if you give them something to eat and drink even Prabakaran knew it and said about it. Think about the country and the future for God sake before it’s too late. Mahinda our great leader had a vision but what about these traitors? Do they have anything like that except cheating the voters to get votes by hook or crook. Do not fall in to the same well like in the past and get buried alive. Think of your children’s future and send these UNP thugs on retirement for the good of the country. They are liars,Dirty,Corrupt and LTTE sympathizers.

    NMY,

    That is right.

    I know his defence secretary used to read articles in LW REGULARLY. Not comments. Just articles. But MR didn’t listened to him either after 2009!!!

    So MR had no chance of knowing WHAT is going on from a PATRIOTIC point of view.

    As long as My3 is there some hope remains. But if Run-nil takes over, then it is all over.

    This is CRIMINAL. Imagine a family of 4 persons appa, amma, 2 kids. They had to pay an additional 18,000 rupees a year for the president!! That is more than 200 loaves of bread!!

  11. douglas Says:

    What type of a “CON ACT” is this. The people of Sri Lanka already know and well informed of the types of rampant CORRUPTION, WASTE, MISMANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES and the “HIGH FY” life styles that the previous regime and the families had enjoyed from 2010 to 2015. It could be termed “Allegations” for the moment until the investigations are held. Yet, very many of those allegations mentioned in tho complains are very “VISIBLE” and people are aware. Also the people are much “relived” that the “monstrous” type of that regime has been kicked out.

    The statement by Charles: ” The Sinhala do not seek to be separated with other communities”. “The Sinhala are not racists but a magnanimous people. Mahainda Rajapakse was the epitome of that magnanimity”.

    That perspective and that “magnanimity” did not occur when the 2015 Presidential Elections voting was annalysed. The “segregation” into Tamil, Muslim, Sinhala was well defined and argued for the loss and winning.

    The next step taken here is to “Trace Back” the history of UNP, Ranil, CBK and the rest. We know very well all these people and parties. This is playing the same “Old Record” into our ears and please note that does not work at all NOW. The people of Sri Lanka want to “TURN A LEAF” and say “GOOD BYE” to that “OLD TALES” and CREATE A NEW SYSTEM OF GOVERNANCE, that which is RESPONSIBLE, ACCOUNTABLE and TRANSPARENT. So let the “100 Day” Ministers appear before us after April 23rd and we know what to do this time.

    But, Charles, keep one thing in mind: NO MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE FAMILY AND THE COHORTS TO RULE OUR COUNTRY. We are HERE and your are FAR WAY.

    “The only passion of the UNP Ministers of 100 days is raking the past in search of material to sling mud at the former President , his government, his family and children.”

    They are providing cheap entertainment to the public while the president and the PM are engaged in paving the way that will in time cause serious damage to the country.

    The cac-handed way they tried to force the CJ out of his job illustrates what is in store.

    First they tried to make the CJ resign from his post via the lawyers’ trade union that engaged in demonstrations at the court complex to make objections to his being the CJ.

    Next they floated a story through the cabinet spokesman that the CJ has agreed to resign.

    Next when that failed and the CJ turned up at work as usual they announced, (another story by the same spokesperson) that the CJ asked for a prestigious ambassador post or a high commissioner post to resign from the post.

    Then there was another event where an MP has gone to CJ’s place and threatening him to resign his post; the CJ has made a complaint at the police about it.

    Now, it has been concluded that the CJ has been occupying his seat while in fact it did not belong to him.

    Whether, this conclusion was made by presidential or by a cabinet discussion is not clear, either way it appears to be a unique and novel way to make judgements in Sri Lanka.

    For this and other such actions by the duo, the president and the PM, could face at a charge of ‘exceeding their powers’ a later date, because neither of them is entitled to exercise the judicial powers of the ‘sovereign people’ which powers belong exclusively to the judiciary.

    It is not only the manner in which the new president and the PM go about their business (and also what should be none of their business) that is worrying.

    There is a likelihood of a two-headed monster type of leadership coming into being for the country’s governance, if that were allowed to happen.

    These types of allegations and counter allegations after toppling a government were very common in Sri Lanka. Let us wait for dusts to settle and see how many cases of corruption goes through the Bribery and corruption commission. When Premadasa and Chandrika left the presidential offices there were so many accusations but at the end of the day people realised that these allegations were mere reports based on gossips and there were no legal actions filed against them.

    Now, there is an allegation of white Van phenomena reappearing in the streets and illegally detaining the personal accountant of Mrs Rajapakse by a group of police officers in civilian clothes who came in a white van yesterday. This is the type of history that is repeating. . Apparently they were looking for whereabouts of 100kg of gold.

    So, Present government is trying its level best to find out any corruption associated with the Rajapakse family. But we, as independent observers are waiting on the side to see any valid accusation coming into the surface before the general elections in May this year.

    UNPer’s will do any dirty trick in the book to be in power. There’s not a single Yahaplanaya guy in that clique. They were all thieves in the past. I dont see anything good coming to Sinhala people from this Govt although they promise sun and the moon. They reduce the prices of few food items to please the stupid Sinhalese and behind our back they are planning to give more concessions to Tamils and Muslims as per the wish and advise by the Americans and western Govts friendly to UNP. India and Diaspora are the other two who will support this Govt because of the close connection they have with them. All these concessions will be temporary. Let’s wait and see after the elections what will happen to this country if by any chance they come to power. Do not cry “Help,Help” and regret later.

    The election was fraudulent according to the study done by Dilrook Kannangara and others. It appears that there was a 91% in crease in Tamil voters in Jaffna, Vanni, Nuwara Eliya etc. Therefore the election should be declared null and void by the Election Commissioner. Please see attached. I cannot understand by the President Mahinda Rajapaksa has not taken any action. I think he was so disappointed and disheartened by the way our people have treated him.

    In the time of the Buddha it is said that the King of the time King Kosala had 16 dreams one after another on 16 consecutive days. They were frightful dreams and the King became afraid and went to see the Lord Buddha and asked him about the dreams. The Enlightened on said that all the dreams foretell of things that will come to pass far in the future. One of the dreams he had was of jackals urinating in golden chalices in the palace. Regarding this particular dream the Lord Buddha said that in the future close to end time all decent people will go and live in forests and jungles. The most crooked and thieves will be in the palace. Everything will be upside down. There will be no justice and no real law and order. That is the meaning of the dream. As you can see it has come to pass.

    Now we have to prevent Ranil’s effort to divide the country!!”

    The second part is the most important because failure could be horrendous.

    The first part was due to his own and his advisers failures.

    There was the actual corruption as in most countries that will go on even in the future; the best one can hope to achieve is make it very risky for both corrupters (the taker and the giver) to undertake. Even then if the rewards are high there will be some who will be tempted as seen from other illegal activities that are going on in the world.

    The difference here is the perception of very high levels of corruption whether they actually existed or not and this perception was further heightened by the affluence and power being arrogantly displayed by some and their offsprings.

    Another aspect is that a large number of the MPs, if not for their going into politics would be unemployable or could only be employed as manual labourers due to their lack of education and the fact that such people are lording over those making an honest living generates animosity and jealousy in the minds of anyone with any education, that is almost anyone who is employed. So, people have been very receptive to the propaganda even when they are grotesquely exaggerated.

    The actual level of corruption will be seen when the cases are brought to courts; I am eagerly waiting to see the actual cases not just the assertions that are being heard at present.

    The extremely lowly manner in which some of the elected public servants behaved both at local and at national level was obvious; here I am referring to the famous Dr MP, the MP involved in the death of a presidential adviser and also the PC (?) politician who was involved in the murder of a British tourist and rape of the tourist’s girl friend.

    After the ex-president got the 18th amendment through and got the ability to contest again, I was hoping that he would start clearing the mess he created with the ‘saloon door’ and would stamp out the ill-governance that was going on so that he could prepare for his third term election while at the same time providing some relief to the masses as the peace dividend that they were expecting in addition to the by then already assured right to life free from danger of suddenly being blown up by a bomb.

    That I believed because a mere two terms would not be enough to develop all parts of the country to reduce the huge disparity that exists between the major cities and the provincial areas.

    Another point in favour of removing the limit of two terms for the EP is that, if it is correct to elect a particular person as an executive PM any number of times it must also be correct to elect a particular person as an EP any number of times, provided the complexity arising from the fact that the EP acting as the head of the a political party and the election is not being conducted by a caretaker govt is sorted out.

    Instead of sorting out this aspect they are going to bring in a two headed executive system!

    MR was developing all parts of the country hitherto untouched by any development work because it is the correct thing to do just as eliminating the LTTE menace is the right thing to do; so that people in those areas also can enjoy facilities only available at present to the people living in the more developed areas.

    Hugely different proportions of the funds having been spent in different areas is a debateable point.

    Unfortunately that did not give any immediate relief from the steeply rising cost of living.

    As the saying goes it is the economy that decides the outcome of many an election; that also played a major part in the defeat of MR.

    The buck stops at the top; all the failures of everybody below him go to his/her account either as not having prevented those failures because he/she did not know when he/she should have made it a point to know them and correct them or as having known them condoned them.

    NeelaMahYodays: Thank you. We all know that these “Bribery & Corruption” allegations will take years and years even to be brought before the Courts. That is our “System”. For example, see the case that is going on in Courts against the present Minister of Finance. The alleged person who was supposed to have given the money has already been tried and sentenced to fourteen years in prison in USA, of course on different charges. Yet, see how that case was disposed of and sentenced the accused. That you cannot see happening in Sri Lanka in the near future.

    The point I was trying to emphasis was: Allegations are made, but at the same time the PUBLIC is aware of the truth of those, because of such “frauds”, “mismanagement” and “corruption” have taken place OPENLY and committed by those in “Authority” in broad day light with Impunity. No doubt, all successive leaders who were in Government were responsible and committed these act of violations and went out free, excepting in one or two cases. One of the recent cases was, where Ex President Mrs. Kumaranatunga was fined by courts along with the Secretary of the Treasury. This Secretary who was not only fined but prohibited in holding any public office was pardoned and appointed to the same position. How can a “Leader” who makes such decisions be considered a “LEADER” and called “His Excellency”? In short, during the period 2010 t0 2015 we have been made to :”OWN” a corrupt society comprised of Politicians and State Officials. We also know very well “WHO” brought about that situation to us. SO NO COME BACK FOR THEM, under this PRESENT SYSTEM.

    What Sri Lanka needs is a complete overhaul of the system of governing by “Hand Over” and “Take Over”. The system envisaged is a National Government where all parties elected SHARE Responsibility and be Accountable and Transparent. In this change of CULTURE the Leader of the party winning the highest seats in Parliament will be the Prime Minister and the Leader of the next party winning the next highest number of seats will be the Deputy Prime Minister. Above all that there will be an All Representative National Executive Committee that will decide on National Policies; Projects and set the Guide Lines for implementation. The separation of power between the Executive and the Judiciary and establishment of those “Independent Commissions”, such as Police, Public service, Judicial, Elections, National Audit etc will be WATCH DOGS with TEETH. Next every member elected to Parliament will be subjected to a rigid “Code of Conduct” and such ethic standards will be enforced strictly. This is no doubt an entirely a NEW EXPERIENCE and worth the effort to put into practice. So let us forget the past and start afresh. If MR too decides to “change” and come forward to “Assimilate”, WELCOME ABOARD.

    Forget the Mud Slinging at the KING, but when “Facebook” Lorenzo stands NAKED with his cover blown, his LITTLE ALL EXPOSED for all the world to see, we must accept him for what he is: An EELAMIST HYPOCRITE trying his DARNEST to DESTABILIZE and UNDERMINE Sri Lanka, no matter WHO IS GOVERNING the Nation!

    The MORE EXTREME SOLUTIONS he proposes, and the MORE MAYHEM he can sow, the BETTER HE FEELS, and the CLOSER HE GETS to his OBJECTIVE of a EELAM carved out from Sri Lanka!

  22. Ananda-USA Says:

    douglas said to Charles: “We are HERE and your are FAR WAY!”

    But, but, douglas old chap …..You forget in your folly …. MILLIONS of us PATRIOTS are HERE standing RIGHT BEHIND YOU ….. BOO! The FUN has JUST BEGUN!

  23. Ananda-USA Says:

    Oi, “Facebook” Lorenzo,

    “You have nothing interesting to say than just ABUSE”???

    Not TRUE, I am here to DISSECT YOUR COMMENTS and HURL THEM IN YOUR FACE as HYPOCRISY, EXTREMISM and TREASON! whenever OTHERS FORGET what you had said and done in the PAST

    There is NOWHERE to HIDE for you at LankaWeb. You had better be the CONSISTENT TRAITOR & EELAMIST you were before the Election or YOUR HYPOCRISY will be EXPOSED …. for all the world to see.

    And, “Facebook” Lorenzo, EXPOSING THE TRUTH about you does not qualify as ABUSE! FACTS are FACTS!

    Ain’t NOWHERE TO HIDE; you had better RUN AWAY …. sheepskins flapping behind you in the wind!!

  24. Lorenzo Says:

    Cerberus,

    JUST ACCEPT the election result. There was NO fraud. Elvis lives. VP is alive. MR will win again. Not true.

  25. Lorenzo Says:

    IF the 3 presidents come together, SLFP can win again. IF the losers keep dividing the party based on PERSONALITIES then the party is DOOMED. Hope the efforts to UNIFY CBK and MR will work. My3 has NO PROBLEM. He is OK with both.

    SWORD-B combined ALL forces against the UNP to win. We need a SWORD-B today. Not INFIGHTING losers. Please kick out the infighting losers who call names to CBK, MR and My3.

    That means SLFP’s stand on certain matters will be COMPROMISED. OK. We have to ACCEPT that.

    Raja rata – My3. Ruhunu rata – MR. Malaya rata – CBK. See how the 3 ancient kingdoms come together if these 3 join hands!! = Thun Singhalaya.

    Charles excellent, but will there be an election?? Time will tell.

  27. Vis8 Says:

    I am beginning to wonder which is the ‘dictatorship’: MR or MY3????
    MY3 is beginning to show their true colors.

  28. Sarath W Says:

    Lorenzo does not give a shit what happens to Sri Lanka just because Mahinda did not listen to him. MY3 leading the country with two of the biggest traitors is alright with him as long as Mahinda does not enter politics again. Starting the Yal Devi and developing the north was a big mistake as the Tamils will always be an ungrateful lot, but giving them everything they want is alright by these three stoogers is okay with Lorenzo?

  29. Lorenzo Says:

    Sarath W,

    NOT TRUE. Please read what I wrote.

  30. Charles Says:

    Mahinda Rajapakse should give up politics rather than join hands with Chandrika, Maitripala and Ranil to form a government together.
